Transmission

Whether your car has an automatic or manual gearbox, Tony's Toys offers a transmission service that takes care of all the vital parts that transfer power from your engine to the wheels. This includes inspecting, repairing, or rebuilding the gearbox itself, as well as replacing or maintaining the clutch in manual cars and the torque converter, gear sets, seals, gaskets, and valve bodies in automatic vehicles. Additionally, we use diagnostic scan tools to examine the software and shift logic in contemporary transmissions.

When you bring your vehicle to us for a transmission service in Cayman, we start by lifting the car on our 4 post Lifts and examining the transmission for signs of wear or damage. We use lock-ring tools and clutch-alignment tools for manual gearboxes, along with fluid-flush equipment to remove old transmission fluid and contaminants. For automatic units, we can run tests for valve body operation, solenoid,s and electronic sensors. If we spot leaking seals, worn bearings or gear damage, we quote you clearly, explain your options, and get your approval before proceeding.

Many drivers come to us when they notice the vehicle slipping between gears, shifting later than it should, or picking up a burnt smell from the transmission fluid. Other warning signs include strange noises during shifting or the transmission warning light illuminating on the dashboard. Ignoring those symptoms in Cayman’s driving environment may lead to more serious damage and costly repairs down the line.

FAQs:

1. How long does a transmission service take?

Turnaround depends on the fault. Basic servicing (fluid flush, seal replacement) may take a few hours. A full rebuild can take a day or more, depending on parts and vehicle type.

2. What vehicles do you service?

We handle sedans, SUVs, trucks, luxury, and hybrid vehicles — both manual and automatic transmissions.

3. Is an appointment required?

You can book online or drop in. For major transmission work, we recommend scheduling so we can allocate the right technician and part support.

4. Should I service my transmission even if there’s no obvious problem?

Yes. Preventive inspections save money. If you’ve driven many miles or experienced rough shifting, checking the transmission early helps avoid costly breakdowns later.
